|. Letitia Is a marchioness. Mamma man
aged It all. You can't think how dull
: and pompous my brother In law Slate

marchioness. -
Mr.. Codd appeared much amused .by
this girlish chatter. The outspoken Lady
Margaret had q charming piquante face
that made people feel young to look at.
Lady Geraldine and the governcss re-
I turned from the adjoining room with port
fcsios to find Mr.. Codd and Lady Mar
garet on the best Of terms.
Mr.. Codd had no previous conception
that aristocratic lips, were ever frank and
ingenious, though he was, Of course,
aware the humanity Of lower degree Is
candid to a painful degree.
After three weeks or so Lady Umfre-
vile began to think 1t time for MIR. Codd
to make up his mind. Why did he not
propose to Geraldine?
The preliminaries had gone on long
enough, and the worlds eyes were begin
ming to fix curiously on the pair. Lady
Umfreville had monopolized the wealthy
stockholder too fully to escape calumny.
The countess thought it might be expe-
sdient to give the backward suitor gen.
tie push. The honor intended for him
might seem too great. In secluded
corner at a garden party she opened fire.
ssYou are evidently not marrying
man, Mr.. Codd, she said, playfully.
Glow can you resist the lovely girls you
E3meet daily2,'
Mr.Codd cast sharp glance at the
slaf1v,s smiling face.
